  4. Foster an environment of psychological safety and accountability within the team, encouraging enthusiastic involvement in creative scientific ventures, constructive discourse, and deeply collaborative work for timely attainment of critical program milestones.
  5. Collaborate with technical leads and adjacent groups to establish product development strategy.
